Flip by Wesley Dennis

This story was one of my favorites as a child.

Flip is a very young pony, just born on a large farm. He lives with his mother, some pigs, chickens, goats and a cats,

The large farm has a big barn and a lovely brook. Flips mom likes to jump the brook to get away from Flip when she needed a break from his teasing and nipping at her. Flip tries and tries, but isn't able to jump the brook.

Finally, tired, he falls asleep next to the brook and dreams that he grew wings and could not only jump anything, including the brook - but he could fly!

A sweet story with illustrations lovely enough to frame as beautiful art.
